[Strings intro]
[introspective verse 1]
Our worlds are fragile and
One mistake can change our lives
never meant to hurt you
never meant to make you cry
[building verse2]
The moments of lapse
Now part of the past
needed us to last
needed us to prove a point
[chorus syncopated]
No madder-how-hard-I try
easier-to-just-deny
Missteps I’ve justified
impossible to rectify
If i could fix …
all the things I’ve done
Repair all we’ve been through
I’d fix the mess
The mess that I made with you
[verse 3]
Little things don’t mean a thing
Until they really mean everything
Try … lookin’ back through time
Try to wipe clear your mind …
If i could fix …
all the things, I’ve done
Repair all we’ve been through
I’d fix the mess,
the mess that I made with you
impossible to do?
[Bridge]
I’m selfish, i’m just like you,
but you already knew,
th world’s not black-and-white,
n’ there’s no gray place to hide,
no middle ground, left for us
to land on, no right place
for us to stand on ah ah ah-on
Oh oh oh there’s no rewind …
No madder how hard I try
easier to just deny
Missteps I’ve justified
impossible to rectify
If I could fix all the things, I’ve done Repair all we’ve been through.
I’d fix the mess
The mess that I made with you.
Oh oh oh oh oh
That’s what I’d do
Yeah I’d be there with you
That’s what I’d do
